Once upon a magic night
Once upon a golden dream
A veil of light dancing in the sky
A dazzling show of glistening beams

Anticipation in the air
Vibrations everywhere
Two worlds united beneath the midnight sun
Two souls entwined in the web of life
Reaching across the arc of time

So long ago, so far away
That night they sailed, high on a distant wave
A voice of old, of bygone days
That night they cried, high on the bridge of life
So high on the bridge of life

Reaching back into the past
Those very hours could be his last
"Ignore the signs, go the other way"
He wasn't meant to die that day
Trapped inside that fiery maze

So long ago, so far away
That night they sailed, high on a distant wave
A voice of old, of bygone days
That night they cried, high on the bridge of life
So high on the bridge of life

(The paradox of time)
Beware, despair, ramifications
(The sacrifice of life)
Can't bear, repair the complications
(Ride the sky waves)
Across the bridge to the other side
(Span the decades)
The unity of father and child

So long ago, so far away
That night they sailed, high on a distant wave
A voice of old, of bygone days
That night they cried, high on the bridge of life
So high on the bridge of life
